Great beach shirt! She had a blast in the waves and we didn’t have to worry about too much sun. We ordered 2/3y and she’s a little under 2yrs, so it’s a little oversized but hoping we can use it next year as well. So far everything we have purchased from LGR has been the best!
Lindsay A. 5/5 Verified
I love the long sleeved bathing suits and keep repurchasing them in bigger sizes - this one has such a lovely print! One star off for two of the seams getting undone quickly, perhaps I got a faulty top.

Bought two Hazy Blues and two Sorbet Striped shirts, each in 2 sizes, as well as the Vintage Red Stripe reversable sun hat. The sun hat says it's for age 5 but is a bit too small for our (small) 5-year-old. So the 2-year-old is wearing it (it's a little big on him but so I expect he can wear it for a few years). Some of the threads on the ends of the sleeves were loose/unraveling, for which I got a full refund, but the shirts are otherwise great and the kids seem to like wearing them so far this summer. I would as a customer buying UPF clothing to read more on the specifics of the material manufacturing. Whether there are moisture channels in the weave (polyester is hyrdophobic and generally dries faster than cotton, but the weave can make this faster or slower), or if there's any titanium dioxide interwoven in the fabric itself (often but not always done with UPF clothing), etc. For us nerds :)

Sorbet Striped UPF 50 Sunsafe Long Sleeve Rash Vest
Store owner replied: Hi MK, Thank you so much for your review and for your support! We are thrilled to hear that your kids are enjoying wearing their new UPF tops this summer. We are sorry to hear that the Vintage Red Stripe Reversible Sunhat was a bit too snug for your 5-year-old, but we're glad your 2-year-old will be able to get plenty of wear out of it over the next few years! We also sincerely apologize again for the loose threads on the sleeves of the tops, we are glad to hear the refund for this was already sorted out for you! We absolutely love your question about the specifics of our UPF clothing manufacturing! To answer for the "nerds" out there: our UPF 50+ protection is achieved purely through the mechanical construction of the fabric, rather than through interwoven chemicals like titanium dioxide. The fabric (which is a blend of recycled polyester and spandex) is tightly knitted and condensed to physically block out the sun's rays. Additionally, our swimwear fabric is Oeko-Tex certified, ensuring it is made without harmful chemicals and is perfectly safe for little ones. It is also Global Recycled Standard (GRS) certified, as the recycled polyester we use is made from post-consumer recycled plastic bottles. Thank you again for your thoughtful feedback and questions! Please feel free to reach out to our customer service team if you ever want to know more about our production and materials. Best Wishes, ~Team LGR
Completo mare meraviglioso, si asciuga in un attimo e tiene il bambino al fresco e al riparo dai raggi upf.

Loved this set! Colourful so easily seen in the water. Good sizing - plenty of room for growth.
Leah A. 5/5 Verified
Great product, my little one was happily splashing in the pool and sea all day without a problem. Removing a star because a seam started to come undone after a few uses and I had to fix it before it unraveled the whole item. I would recommend it!

Rainbow UPF 50+ Sunsafe Long Sleeve Rash Vest
Store owner replied: Thank you very much for your kind review! We're pleased to hear that the swimming vest was ideal for your little one to play in the pool and sea all day, but we're really sorry to hear about the issue with the seam. We have a 365 day quality guarantee, and our Customer Service team will be in touch via email shortly to assist you with this! Best wishes, LGR Team
Heavy weight swim top, definitely sun protective and great for peace of mind. High quality item, but because the material is such high quality it is a little warm, so regular hosing off required! Already bought the next size up!
Helen V. 5/5 Verified
Lovely material and colours. I got the set for the swimming lessons of my two year old daughter. So far, very happy with it!
Maria I. 5/5 Verified
We have used this swim top regularly for months now. On beaches, pools, lakesides.. it's done it all. Very good quality and nice bright colours. I think this is important for swimwear to not be camouflage as boys swimwear so often is!

This is a brilliant swim suit, looks wonderful and is well made. So happy! My seven month old looks so cute in it!

Love the fabric and look, it fits really well and I am extra happy about the UV protection!

There were, on all 4 of these shirts, some loose threads on the sleeves immediately after the first "new clothes" light wash (30 degrees, fine/delicates since they're not dirty). I've clipped them off and am keeping an eye on any new ones (they might just be manufacturing leftovers that weren't clipped rather than unravels). The kids seem to like them, don't complain that they're too hot (we're not in the water. I know these are rash guards which expect to be in water but I bought these purely for the UVP and we're wearing them in the current European heat dome event).

Great for our summer holiday, kept our baby safe in the sun.
Karin C. 5/5 Verified
The pattern is beautiful and it is well sewn, however, the fabric seems delicate and is prone to snagging, so probably better for pool use than outside/beach play.

Sealife UPF 50+ Sunsafe Long Sleeve Rash Vest
Store owner replied: Thank you for your feedback Sally!
Although not worn yet, am delighted with the whale design and matching shorts especially as I have not seen this design on any other website. Material feels light weight, easy for the child to pull on and off. Happy to find product with UVP as not all children’s swim wear has this. Would like to know if this is something that is reduced with wear.
